KentaYuki @kentayuki.bsky.social · 06/06/2026when I first got on this site someone got mad at me for not putting alt text on my art, I try and do it on every one of my pictures now but I am pretty sure no one reads them. 7251
claire @clairesdesires.bsky.social · 06/06/2026tbh I mainly go out of my way to alt text my posts since I noticed alt text is also used when finding posts by keyword through the search page Kinda sneaky but I make sure to put my character's name and species and what kinky things are explicitly happening for the sake of potential visibility :P 020
FenixMinervaNSFW @fenixminervansfw.bsky.social · 07/06/2026I find Alt text to be perfect as descriptions, especially when there’s not enough space to describe a certain thing in one single tweet. 020
MothMan @monmothman.bsky.social · 07/06/2026Alt text is not there for people with disabilities, it's there to help train AI scrapers. "A picture of a dog with a blue collar on." Okay now the AI knows what a dog with a blue collar looks like. 000
Mindwipe @mindwipe.bsky.social · 07/06/2026I remember someone yelling at a friend for questioning the effectiveness of alt text, and I resolved myself to never use it. I only came around to it when I learned it could function as a pseudo-tagging system on your profile's search function. Still, the experience really soured me on the idea. 130
the dragon! @rykela.bsky.social · 07/06/2026I like using alt text for real-world pictures of flowers, animals and scenery because it lets you be far more descriptive about what's going on in them than the short character limit for a single post allows. 130
Spooky Bri :3 🔞 @brisarious.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I have a bit of a suspicion they started encouraging it for AI training 010
